It sure is fun to correctly pick the inevitable First Round upsets. This year, both 10-Loyola-Chicago and 10-Miami are favorites to win their First Round games.
10-seeds have some very strong model results, translating to a 95% chance that we'll see multiple 10-seeds advancing to the Second Round. Chances are looking good for multiple 11-6 upsets, too - about 50% chance we'll see more than 1. Last year we only had one 12-5 upset, and this year there's about a 74% chance we'll have at least 1, but the likelihood of more than that is only around 33%.
Here are the double-digit teams with at least a 20% chance to win their First Round game.
